Honors Program
Sam Houston State University
The Elliott T. Bowers Honors Program is a place for highly-motivated students looking for a unique educational opportunity. The Honors Program provides these achievement-oriented individuals with some financial support, an opportunity to interact with other similarly motivated students, special course offerings leading to an unusually broad educational experience, small classes, close contact with hand-picked faculty, the opportunity for early registration, and access to distinctively designed facilities.
The Honors Program is designed to attract and retain highly competent and motivated students and seeks to create an intellectual and social climate that encourages students to develop their potential both in and out of the classroom. To this end, the program creates a community of scholars, wherein both students and professors interact and challenge each other in developing their abilities. Specifically, the program provides personalized instruction and mentorship opportunities in supporting the University's overall mission of high academic standards and community service. Graduating with Honors from Sam Houston State University provides definite advantages for students entering graduate or professional school, as well as those starting out in their chosen professions.
